The ladies of Yumemiru Adolescence are back with the music video for ‘Leadership ‘.

Stick around til the end the video to see how this feat was accomplished and to see some cute behind the scenes outtakes below!
On July 20, Ame no Parade will release their new single, “You.” The band has now released the covers and music video for the song.
